The County of San Mateo is building a campus where adults experiencing a severe mental illness can receive care in setting that feels more residential than institutional. This new campus will replace a concrete colossus that first housed tuberculosis patients during the Truman Administration. The design -- small-scale buildings, open-air courtyards and communal spaces -- reflects advances in treatment with a focus on recovery and well-being.

The Department has observed and received reports of numerous trails in Quarry Park that have been built without permission and therefore are not according to Department trail standards. In addition, signage made to appear as formal Department signs have been nailed to trees.
